An 18-year-old man has been charged with murder following the death of a 58-year-old man in Emerald.
The older man was found unresponsive following an alleged disturbance between the pair at a Loch Street address about 11pm on March 10.
The younger man was taken into custody at the time, but was only charged at the Emerald Police Station on Thursday, six days after his arrest.
Police will allege the pair knew each other.
The 18-year-old man is expected to appear in Emerald Magistrates Court on Thursday.
